Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Why do you say the figure is “off” ? How do you know differently ?

This figure has been reported since he signed his last deal ..

1) the figure has not been 800k since he signed his last deal.. anyone reporting otherwise are probably the same people who reported brooks on 1.3 mil. I have looked up "Lomax 700k" into google and seen plenty of reports on it.

2) Here is the NRL Rich 100 from 2023, which has Lomax at 700k

Luai slots in. Stay calm everyone. Clowns at Fox like to create stories to unsettle rosters. It’s great to have halves talent and depth. Enjoy.

Luai at half and Galvin a running 5/8th will.be more than adequate.

Lomax is too expensive and has a questionable attitude. We've splurged on Luai and can't afford to do it with too many given Galvin will need a big upgrade soon along with others.

Figure of 800k is off. Also, that salary will be renegotiated anyway as the contract is terminated. I think anyone who has the attitude to work hard and bring their best to the team weekly has a place in Benji's team.

For all the mentions of his entitlement and lack of professionalism, he certainly isn't showing it on the field.

Watch last year's games, he is so full of himself.

Got tons of dragons fans in the family, none are shedding any tears.

Good point. I suspect the period in which we could be in for basically every marquee option are already gone and we're going to have to be pretty selective about who to target. Utoikamanu is another one who will be needing big coin, potentially as soon as when (if!) we drop out of the finals race this year. Doueihi is the only significant contract coming off the books at the end of this season and his money could easily be swallowed up by Galvin alone.

Think it may be a different set up next year , just a feeling I have and I think it will look like this .
5/8 faniu
1/2. Luai
Lock Galvin , he will play like yeo does for the panthers , just needs to put on 6-10 kgs , with bula at fullback and api at hooker what a spine

Lomax has a contract on the table and probably has already reached a verbal agreement. It appears that club is the Eels, but you never know. I think we would be rank outsiders as I don’t think we are interested. That is not based on any reliable info rather I don’t think his contract value matches his output. I think one wing spot and one centre spot will not be blocked out by a long contract and seen as a destination for the pathway kids

I don't believe Makasini has extended with us. Sign up Lomax and he definitely won't.

Has there ever been anything linking him to the Wests Tigers outside this forum ?

 

[TigerNeddyK]

What do you think we will end up doing with douhie can't see any options for him here, personally I don't see any need for jerome leui but unfortunately he's coming and on huge dollars, just hoping it won't be at the expense of Galvin, would be disastrous if we lost him for that clown coming from Penrith

Username checks out 🤪

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Id be filthy if we wasted money on Lomax.

 

[Buttface]

Sezer is likely to retire season's end. Luai and Galvin will be the halves pairing

If Sezer has any kind of a season this year he will wanna play on, and an NRL players ego knows no bounds, so he will wanna pay rise too.

 

[TigerNeddyK]

I reckon that's a bad idea loaning any of our halves at the moment. Latu is in our 17 this weekend.

Insane idea, that is one of the most ludicrous posts I have ever seen on this forum and I include AHXs non medicated days ! 😜

Well he can find one elsewhere. There won’t be a spot for him next year.

Explain pal??

I would suggest he’s claiming your username is apt. Because you would have to be in space to think Luai won’t be a good signing.

Yeah he’s gunna be surplus. But if Bud doesn’t work out, and we can keep him on minimum wage for another year as cover? Problem with that is an NRL players ego knows no bounds.

Parramatta

Lomax has made it very clear he wants to play right centre or fullback.
I can’t see Parramatta moving Penisini or Gutherson for him.
